I would like to raise the point that the thread is ambiguously titled (not to mention unreadable in some parts) so it could refer to most topics.

Maybe a further foray into this new, exciting and admirably ambitious experiment in thread cohesion would benefit from a more explicit title?

I like Nimbin cheese by the way.

Can I roll up the sleeves on my Armani suit Turban?

It's a bit more Miami-Bond but yes, sleeves rolled up are acceptable in lieu of the weather. Shall I start climbing the tower?

I thought Turban's world was more like the speedboat chase out of Live and Let Die but without the speedboat.

How does it work the other way around? I was once stopped whilst driving and went past the stop mark line of the police checkpoint by about a metre and the Policeman came over ranting at me that I was a ****ing idiot and did I not see him hold up his hand to tell me to ****ing stop.

Can I fine him for swearing in public?

You can make a complaint I guess.

One of the things that has surprised me here is that they hand out speeding fines to coppers whilst they're on duty (and not going with blues and twos).

Hey guys! I've got a fibre glass dinghy with a 5 hp outboard... it's a speed boat of sorts - faster than a Stockland mobility scooter.

Yeah, a complaint I think. Though I'm not sure how far it would go - the police seems to be a very closed shop here, much more so than it is back home.
